If the `easytags.vim` plug-in fails to highlight your tags and the error message mentions that the pattern is too big, your tags file has grown too large for Vim to be able to highlight all tagged identifiers! I've had this happen to me with 50 KB patterns because I added most of the headers in `/usr/include/` to my tags file. Internally Vim raises the error [E339: Pattern too long] [e339] and unfortunately the only way to avoid this problem once it occurs is to reduce the number of tagged identifiers... diff --git a/autoload/xolox/easytags.vim b/autoload/xolox/easytags.vim index b98fb2b..f450785 100644 --- a/autoload/xolox/easytags.vim +++ b/autoload/xolox/easytags.vim @@ -1,12 +1,22 @@ " Vim script " Author: Peter Odding <peter@peterodding.com> -" Last Change: July 9, 2014 +" Last Change: July 19, 2014 " URL: http://peterodding.com/code/vim/easytags/ -let g:xolox#easytags#version = '3.6.3' +let g:xolox#easytags#version = '3.6.4' let g:xolox#easytags#default_pattern_prefix = '\C\<' let g:xolox#easytags#default_pattern_suffix = '\>' +if !exists('s:timers_initialized') + let g:xolox#easytags#update_timer = xolox#misc#timer#resumable() + let g:xolox#easytags#highlight_timer = xolox#misc#timer#resumable() + let g:xolox#easytags#syntax_match_timer = xolox#misc#timer#resumable() + let g:xolox#easytags#syntax_keyword_timer = xolox#misc#timer#resumable() + let g:xolox#easytags#syntax_filter_stage_1_timer = xolox#misc#timer#resumable() + let g:xolox#easytags#syntax_filter_stage_2_timer = xolox#misc#timer#resumable() + let s:timers_initialized = 1 +endif + " Plug-in initialization. {{{1 function! xolox#easytags#initialize(min_version) " {{{2 @@ -155,6 +165,7 @@ endfunction function! xolox#easytags#update(silent, filter_tags, filenames) " {{{2 let async = xolox#misc#option#get('easytags_async', 0) + call g:xolox#easytags#update_timer.start() try let have_args = !empty(a:filenames) let starttime = xolox#misc#timer#start() @@ -162,7 +173,7 @@ function! xolox#easytags#update(silent, filter_tags, filenames) " {{{2 let tagsfile = xolox#easytags#get_tagsfile() let command_line = s:prep_cmdline(cfile, tagsfile, a:filenames) if empty(command_line) - return + return 0 endif " Pack all of the information required to update the tags in " a Vim dictionary which is easy to serialize to a string. @@ -191,6 +202,8 @@ function! xolox#easytags#update(silent, filter_tags, filenames) " {{{2 return 1 catch call xolox#misc#msg#warn("easytags.vim %s: %s (at %s)", g:xolox#easytags#version, v:exception, v:throwpoint) + finally + call g:xolox#easytags#update_timer.stop() endtry endfunction @@ -279,6 +292,7 @@ endfunction function! xolox#easytags#highlight() " {{{2 " TODO This is a mess; Re-implement Python version in Vim script, benchmark, remove Python version. try + call g:xolox#easytags#highlight_timer.start() " Treat C++ and Objective-C as plain C. let filetype = xolox#easytags#filetypes#canonicalize(&filetype) let tagkinds = get(s:tagkinds, filetype, []) @@ -304,7 +318,9 @@ function! xolox#easytags#highlight() " {{{2 " Get the list of tags when we need it and remember the results. let ctags_filetypes = xolox#easytags#filetypes#find_ctags_aliases(filetype) let filetypes_pattern = printf('^\(%s\)$', join(map(ctags_filetypes, 'xolox#misc#escape#pattern(v:val)'), '\|')) + call g:xolox#easytags#syntax_filter_stage_1_timer.start() let taglist = filter(taglist('.'), "get(v:val, 'language', '') =~? filetypes_pattern") + call g:xolox#easytags#syntax_filter_stage_1_timer.stop() endif " Filter a copy of the list of tags to the relevant kinds. if has_key(tagkind, 'tagkinds') @@ -312,7 +328,9 @@ function! xolox#easytags#highlight() " {{{2 else let filter = tagkind.vim_filter endif + call g:xolox#easytags#syntax_filter_stage_2_timer.start() let matches = filter(copy(taglist), filter) + call g:xolox#easytags#syntax_filter_stage_2_timer.stop() if matches != [] " Convert matched tags to :syntax commands and execute them. let use_keywords_when = xolox#misc#option#get('easytags_syntax_keyword', 'auto') @@ -326,6 +344,7 @@ function! xolox#easytags#highlight() " {{{2 " keyword command when 1) we can do so without sacrificing " accuracy or 2) the user explicitly chose to sacrifice " accuracy in order to make the highlighting faster. + call g:xolox#easytags#syntax_keyword_timer.start() let keywords = {} for tag in matches if s:is_keyword_compatible(tag) @@ -341,8 +360,10 @@ function! xolox#easytags#highlight() " {{{2 " tags that still need to be highlighted. call filter(matches, "!s:is_keyword_compatible(v:val)") endif + call g:xolox#easytags#syntax_keyword_timer.stop() endif if !empty(matches) + call g:xolox#easytags#syntax_match_timer.start() let matches = xolox#misc#list#unique(map(matches, 'xolox#misc#escape#pattern(get(v:val, "name"))')) let pattern = tagkind.pattern_prefix .
